vb .net vs. ASP .NET -- Where to draw the line

[SteveInBeloit]

Hi,
We have been getting an increasing number of requests to re-write VB .NET apps into ASP .NET. Some are quite complicated, lots of user interface and back end processing via stored procedures. At what point do you say, this is not a good candidate for the web?

Any thoughts welcomed!

Using Ajax you can make web applications as responsive as windows applications (if not, more responsive than traditional web apps) .

lots of user interface and back end processing via stored procedures.

For windows apps also you have to do these, but ofcourse a little easier. But using asp.net 2.0 we have a lot of readymade advanced controls and third party controls which makes life a lot easier.

At what point do you say, this is not a good candidate for the web?

May be if your effort is very much greater than your actual income from the project . Still confused.
